Description

High-efficiency plastic photo-grafting treatment method and plastic metallization method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of plastic surface treatment, in particular to a high-efficiency plastic photo-grafting treatment method and a plastic metallization method.
Background
Plastic metallization is a way to obtain a metal layer on the surface of plastic by adopting a specific treatment method, so that the surface of the plastic presents metal characteristics, thereby facilitating welding and electroplating; can replace metal products in some special fields, thereby reducing the cost and improving the product performance. The plastic metallization includes dry plating (physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition), wet plating (chemical plating, electroplating, etc.) and photo-grafting; the photografting technology can avoid roughening a large amount of chromic acid and other high-pollution substances on the surface of the plastic, and has excellent environmental protection performance and low cost. The photografting is to use aromatic ketone and derivative to absorb ultraviolet light and then excite to a singlet state S, then quickly jump to a triplet state T, when the surface of the polymer is a hydrogen donor, carbonyl takes hydrogen to be reduced into hydroxyl, and a surface free radical is generated.
The plastic photografting is researched by students in China, related documents and patents also report that the influence of initiator concentration, initiation time, grafting liquid concentration and grafting time on the grafting rate is mainly researched, but the plastic photografting has a bottleneck on further improving the binding force of a metal plating layer, which is probably because byproducts generated in the grafting process are homopolymers, copolymers and grafting monomers, and the homopolymers and the copolymers are required to reduce the binding force of the plating layer, so that the binding force is not required by the metallization of the plastic surface, and the integrity of the subsequent copper plating effect is influenced by the post-grafting treatment. In addition, the existing plastic photo-grafting method only stays in a laboratory and cannot realize mass production; when the plastic photografting is carried out in a laboratory, the pretreatment of the plastic surface is carried out by simply removing oil by acid, and the plastic surface treatment mode is very simple. The research shows that the pretreatment and the post-treatment of the plastic surface play a very critical decisive role in metallizing the whole plastic surface, the initiation effect of the plastic surface is directly determined by the pre-treatment in the early stage, and the bonding strength of the metal coating is affected by the existence of grafting byproducts in the grafting post-treatment, so that the bonding force of the coating is improved by breaking through the two factors; in addition, the existing plastic photo-grafting method only stays in a laboratory stage, and for a production enterprise, cost problems are also required to be considered in the pretreatment and post-treatment processes of plastic photo-grafting in the process of putting into mass production.
